Reaction Steps

Lithium aluminum hydride (0.5 g, 11.7 mmol) was suspended in ether (50 ml) and cooled to −20° C. to −30° C. Thereto was added dropwise a solution of ethyl 2,2-dimethyl-3-hydroxy(2-chlorobenzoyl)acetate (2 g, 7.8 mmol) in ether (10 ml) while maintaining at not higher than −20° C. The mixture was stirred at −20° C. for 1 h and at 0° C. for 3 h, cooled to −20° C. and 10%—NaHSO4 aqueous solution (20 ml) was added dropwise. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 min, and an insoluble material was removed by decantation. This was washed twice with ether (100 ml) and the organic layer was combined. The mixture was washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated to dryness to give the title compound (1.3 g, 78%) as a colorless oil.
